Description
By Wine Advocate in 2011 (WA95)
The beautiful, dry 2008 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc (70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon) offers loads of citrus oil, honey and wood spice notes in a medium-bodied, crisp, surprisingly concentrated, intense style. It should age easily for another 20-30 years.
By International Wine Cellar in 2009 (IWC91-93)
Bright straw-green. Highly perfumed nose offers lemon verbena, white stone fruits and minerals. Enters the mouth full and rich, with very ripe citrus and white stone fruit flavors. Then long and mineral-driven on the back, finishing with a distinctly tannic bite. An excellent wine with impeccable balance and uncommon depth.
